This video shows how to update your existing FLEXnet service for the new version. This applies if you have Maintenance at the release of a new version, and also if you have purchased an upgrade to the new version.

This is an introductory tutorial to Origin, a data analysis and graphing software used by scientists and engineers all over the world. It covers the basic features and will help you get started using this software.

The Origin Central Dialog provides many benefits. One is the graph samples tab which allows you to find and open sample projects with a specific graph type. It provides the capability to open recently saved and unsaved files.

This video shows how to customize the Origin interface to arrange and browse in the project explorer and messages log. The customized arrangement could be exported and there is also a reinitialize option.

The Status Bar is an easily-overlooked yet handy Origin feature. This video shows how you can select a data range in the worksheet and report statistics to the Status Bar. Also, get some pointers on customizing toolbars.

Excel import has been improved in Origin 2016 to support importing into new book/sheet based on current workbook/sheet or saved workbook/sheet template; running script after import; and partial import from 2nd file on.

Import your Excel data into an Origin workbook. Then, using file path an import settings that are automatically stored in the workbook, re-import the file, with or without re-opening the import Excel dialog box.

Learn how to use the enhanced digitizer tool which supports auto tracing and digitizing in polar and ternary coordinate systems. Since Origin 2015 this tool can be accessed directly by Tools:Digitizer menu.

Origin's Send Graphs to PowerPoint feature outputs user-selected graphs to an existing PowerPoint file. Specify the insertion point and which slide or template to use as your background – no need to create a Slide Master.

This video shows how to add vertical or horizontal lines with labels in graph. You can specify the color and the style of the lines .And the lines label will be updated, when the line is moved to a new location.

This video shows the improvements of graphing in Origin 9, for example the possibility to show negative radius in polar graphs, to reverse axis direction in ternary plot, and to order stacked bar/columns in bar/column charts.

Origin 2016 supports skipping weekend and holidays in financial plots by default. If you open axis dialog, you will notice a new Axis Type Discrete has been added. When it's selected, rows without data will be skipped.

This video will show you how to make a Line Series Plot, one of the many Box Chart variations you can create with Origin. This video then shows how to customize the graph. This material is also covered in a blog post at http://blog.originlab.com/graphing-showcase/plot-row-wise-data-as-line-series-in-origin-2017.

This video shows some userful ways to plot and customize error bars in 2D graphs. How to skip data or error bars on large data and draw error bar as filled area. Also, how to plot positive and negative error bars from different columns.

Origin's powerful Cloneable Template feature allows you to save the DNA of the graph - the exact mapping of worksheet columns to graph layers - to your graph templates. "Smart Plotting" allows you to recreate the graph with new data of same structure, by simply selecting a matching template from the plot menu.

Origin's Annotation Tool lets you customize the annotation label. Besides point coordinates, you can easily choose other worksheet column metadata, such as Long Name, Comments, or even User-defined Parameters, when annotating your plots.

This video demonstrates how to use data from other worksheet columns – what we call plot modifiers – to control plot attributes; how to copy one plot's modifier to another plot; and how to save modifications to a graph template for future use.

Adding special tick labels at specific positions on a graph axis is easy in Origin. You can format and position your special ticks directly on the graph. In this video, we will take you through creating a special tick label and show you how to add easily add custom formatting.

This video shows how to add reference lines to the graph axes by using statistical functions such as mean and standard deviation and can as well use custom equations or expressions to add lines based on axis scale values.

Learn how to copy and paste data from Excel with full precision, import Excel file(s) directly into an Origin workbook, and save the Origin project containing an Excel window which is linked to an external Excel file.

Origin 2016 introduces an easier way to perform batch processing during import. Import one file and set up the graphing and analysis in a workbook. Then simply import multiple files of same format, and clone to each file.

Origin's analysis dialog boxes typically offer a large collection of options for testing, processing and output of data. Dialog Themes allow you to save any number of combinations of these options to a Theme file that can be applied to future analyses, thus achieving uniform handling of data and significant time savings. When you save a Dialog Theme, it becomes a menu command that can be used to run your analysis without need to open a dialog box.

Learn how to perform simple statistics on a region of interest (ROI) in a graph and mask points inside ROI by buttons. Also, learn how to view or output the statistics for points inside and outside the ROI.

This video shows how to report confidence interval for the calculated Y/X value when you find X/Y from a fitting result. You can enter a Y/X value in the result sheet and Origin calculates the corresponding X/Y value.

This video shows how to choose data identifier when carrying out analysis for multiple datasets. The data identifier could be column long name, short name, book name, sheet name.etc, and can also be a custom identifier.

Learn how to perform Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT). Also show you how to change dialog settings to improve the time and frequency resolution and improve time resolution without affecting frequency resolution.

In this video we'll be showing you how to use the Maps Online App to create a 3D bar graph of the world's population distribution, you can follow along at blog.originlab.com/graphing/placing-3d-bars-on-a-map

This tutorial will show you how to use Spreadsheet Notation to set column values in Origin 2017 use Google Map Import App to import google map image into Origin and show it as background of an existing graph.

This video shows the New dialog for managing Apps from within Origin. With the App Center Dialog you can browse through available Apps, search for Apps using keywords and phrases, and install or update Apps.

The purpose of this App is to create a "template" Project Explorer folder containing a "prototype" work book or matrix book with imported data. Then, new data can be imported into "cloned" copies of the template folder.
